Belief and resilience are traits Brentford have always displayed when faced with adversity and it was no surprise to see them here as Bryan Mbeumo’s late equaliser in the 93rd minute gave them a point, preserving their unbeaten Premier League record. It appeared Bournemouth would steal victory after a dominant second-half performance from the hosts. It was a huge blow for Andoni Iraola’s side, who have been waiting for a win at Brentford since 2005.
Kevin Schade retained his place in the starting XI having scored his first league goal for the club in last week’s 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace, and he showed why Brentford decided to make his move from Freiburg permanent. He looked menacing down the left, winning aerial duels and linking up well with Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa.
